Which files in my workspace are persistent, and which ones are only available in my workspace?

When you first start your workspace, there should be at least three folders already in the file browser: che, maap-users, and <username>.  

  • che contains config files for your ADE.  You don’t need to worry about it. 
  • maap-users is an s3-backed folder shared among all members of the maap-users organization (every registered MAAP user).  If you are in other MAAP organizations, each organization will have its own shared s3-backed folder.  
  • Finally, <username> is also s3-backed, but only shown to you.  However, when you share your workspace with another user, both users’ personal folders will be mounted and accessible from the shared workspace.

Anything placed within a s3-backed folder will be added to s3 and be persistent.  Anything outside those folders will be ephemeral.Please clone your git repositories (e.g. dps_plot) outside the s3-backed folders, as they should already be version controlled elsewhere.
